Chapter 127 - Day 11 - Reports (1/2)

Day 11

I checked my watch and it's 1:02 AM

I pushed the carts that we brought towards the door while we waited for Oscar, Jared, and Tatiana to come back. Kaley was just staring at me while I swing my legs to the table counter that I sat in. My clothes are bloodstained but you could only see it faintly due to the clothing that I wore and due to the fact that I wiped the bits on my skin when I did my work on the people at the yard.

”Sit here. Why are you staring at me?” I said as I motioned for her to sit next to me.

”Nothing.” she replied as she sits next to me.

”Okay.” I said as she leaned on my shoulder.

We sat there for a while as Tatiana came back first while Oscar and Jared are pushing their own carts towards us. I immediately facepalmed when I saw what the two were carrying on their carts.

”The f.u.c.k is that old man?” I said as I shook my head.

”What? This is all food.” he replied.

”I know. But why in the hell did you two bring a lot of them? It can't fit the trucks that we have!” I exclaimed.

”Shit! I thought we have the 8-wheeler... I got so used to that thing I brought a lot.” Oscar trailed.

”That was what I was telling you earlier!” Jared said helplessly.

”Are you getting senile old man?” I said jokingly.

”...! Don't ever say that kid! I'm not! I'm just a bit tired!” he exclaimed but I could sense the worry from his expression.

”Just kidding old man, heh! Let's go now? Just leave that extra cart there since we would be coming back to this place in the future.” I said while I hopped down from where Kaley and I was sitting on.

I drew my katana as I slowly opened the door. Nothing was in the vicinity though I kept my guard up.

”Kaley, watch us when we load the items in the trucks. I could probably fit a bit more if I was the one loading them.” I said.

”I'll help her.” Tatiana said as she readied her fire axe.

Kaley drew the wakizashi and the pistol and she stood guard with Tatiana a bit forward.

”I'll trust you guys yeah?” I said while I pulled the pushcarts off with Jared.

”Sure. You'll be cooking so I'll do a great job.” Kaley said.

”Bro! The f.u.c.k?! You're cooking?! Save me a portion!” Jared exclaimed.

”Kid?! The f.u.c.k are you not telling me you're cooking?! Make me those hamburgers inside where the meat is inside the bread! What do you call that again... Ah! Beef Wellingtons, right?!” Oscar exclaimed.

”...” I was speechless.

”Is Sky's cooking really that good?” Tatiana was surprised.

”Yup. Better than mom.” Jared said.

”I'll tell aunt you said that. You'll be eating from cans for a few weeks.” I said.

”Whoa, whoa, whoa! Easy now!” Jared exclaimed.

The loading of the cargo was uneventful and we successfully finished without any incident. I rode with Kaley while the three are on the Raptor. Oscar drove it forwards while I followed from behind.

We took the normal route in the highway and the whole ride was uneventful as well. We drove past the DDR camp but they never minded us. We made the turn and we eventually reached home. What surprised me was that Matthew is at the gate waiting anxiously. His eyes are bloodshot and he immediately rushed down to open the gate for us.

”THE F.U.C.K DID YOU GUYS GO?!” he bellowed.

”Tying lose ends.” Oscar replied.

”WHAT?!” he was flabbergasted.

”We'll talk about this later. Everyone is tired.” I said.

”BUT!” he retorted.

”Dad! We're tired and it's already past midnight, can you let us have a short rest please?” Kaley said as he relented.
